The next film on Kevin Smith‘s slate for this year is the sequel to his ode to teenage/early-adult mall-squatting, Mallrats. Today, he took to Twitter to show that the script is now finished. He announced that the sequel will be titled Mallbrats, to give a tribute to his brother in arms Jim Jacks, who helped produce the original but sadly passed away in 2014.

Very little is known about how Mallbrats is taking shape, but it will contain a mall’s destruction and another appearance from Stan Lee. Most of the original cast are returning; Jason Lee, Shannen Doherty, Jeremy London, Joey Lauren Adams, Michael Rooker, and Ethan Suplee are all set to reprise their roles.
